Douglas Durst: Wils/Bergman plan too slow

Share This Post

To The Editor:
It is not feasible to build housing on Pier 40 and that concept has been abandoned. The Wils/Bergman plan is to build housing in the park west of Pier 40. Building housing in parks is an excellent idea for developers. Unfortunately, by the time the Hudson River Park Act is amended, the project plan is amended, the zoning is changed and the three public processes these entail are complete, it will be too late for Pier 40.
